Combining monitoring and privacy-protection perspectives in a semantic model for IP traffic measurements

Abstract

Several research efforts have focused on the topic of unified data models for IP traffic measurements. However, this domain is so rich in semantics and comprises so many challenges that a standard for sharing and handling datasets is difficult to achieve consensus on. This work is backed by the know-how coming from two projects dealing with unified, privacy-aware access to network data and aims to achieve an integrated model, combining the various concepts involved. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
